"That's what they tell me anyway," Paige said. "I've loved hockey since I was able to skate. It's pretty cool to be out here against these guys and there's a lot of people, so it's kind of nerve-wracking.
"My brother's used to that [at Minnesota], but I'm not, so it'll be cool to have so many people watching special hockey."
On Monday, players such as Schuneman and Paige Faber were who the crowd and NHL players were there to watch.
"We love this game," Parise said. "Everyone does. The fans get into it, the players get into it, and most importantly those athletes have fun with it. They have a good time, we score a lot of goals. Those players can move. It's just really a fun, fun night for everyone. Happy to be a part of it."
